I really wish I could give this hotel 5 out of 5. It is in a perfect location, charming setting, the staff are lovely and the courtyard is quite social - a great place to meet up with other travelers and chat. The room I was in had two beds. One looked a little hard but the one I slept... More

I booked and paid for a room here through Agoda. The place was easy enough for the taxi to find. As I arrived a large Chinese family pulled up behind me and followed through into the hotel. I was told to "rest" while the family went running around the hotel. It all got a bit Fawlty Towers as they offered... More

This would not get 5 stars if it were a hotel – but it’s not – its more of an Inn or B&B. That considered – this is a 5 star place to stay in when in Beijing. Highly recommended! Rooms are simple, clean and cozy – most of them with doors and windows directly out to the inner courtyard... More

We picked this hotel because the reviews were good and the price was affordable. But for us just about everything was horrible. First, we ordered a pick up--this was clearly shown on our invoice. But the car never showed up and we were left wandering around the Beijing airport. Finally, we got a SIM card and called the hotel number.... More

My husband and I wanted to stay in a different type of accommodation, and this certainly fit that bill. The young couple running the business have recently taken over, and are not local to Beijing but are willing to learn and so so helpful , as well as being really sweet ! The shared courtyard is blissfully quiet. The rooms... More

OK its not 5 star, but it was a great hotel. Small intimate and a stone's throw form Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. A short distance to Beijing night life and shopping. When I got there things were in disarray as they were working on repairs but later in the evening everything was in place. I just feel I could... More

A real experience in a converted Hutong. Staff were so eager to be helpful, and were a delight. The location is perfect - a quiet back street minutes walk from Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Great restaurants in the area, and tea/coffee in the hotel courtyard. This is an excellent way to experience such a huge city, and the... More

If you’re looking for culture are understading about the Chinese way of life, this is the place to go to. The design of the hotel and the people is just great. You get the real Chinese deal. I stayed here 4 days and must say that I enjoyed my stay. Mainly because the staff are so nice. They are so... More

This excellent hotel/guesthouse has a bit of an identity problem. On some booking web sites it is “Tiananmen Yier Hotel”. However, at the end of the alley on which it is situated (now paved) off Nan Chizi Dajie, the sign points to “Yi Er International Hotel” (i.e. One-Two Hotel). The hotel goes by both names on Tripadvisor. By the end... More
